My Draft Paper on the Digital Media Store (and other info)
The paper I was working on before my travels apparently did end up in the Speed Bumps Conference docs and on the Web, so I might as well link to it. It explores what I call the Digital Media Store, the evolving means of selling music and movies through services like iTunes, Napster 2.0, and Movielink. I explore the theory and practice of these systems, considering important variables for their success and failure, along with the effects of a Speed Bumps or Technological Lockdown Scenarios. I would appreciate any and all comments; it is only a draft, very much a work in progress (btw, apologies for some of the typos, particularly in that first line, which should say “alternative models” – a couple of words got jumbled in transit to the speed bumps page). Also, I should point out that this is merely one section of what will be a larger paper on digital media biz models – stay tuned.
Also, do check out all the resources listed at the Speed Bumps page, including the overview from Prof Nesson and Sarah Hsia
